Yes I would go with red/white, red/black, or red/green hose myself.
The pipers of the Argyll & Sutherland Highlanders wore red/black diced hosetops with spats, but with buckled brogues wore diced full hose which appear to be green/black or perhaps green/navy. They look great.
Yes the RRS wear red/black hose with their Sutherland kilts but diced hose have always been popular with civilian wear also, and their civilian use predates their military use.
